چکیده

Human endometrial tissue, sampled at different periods of the reproductive cycle, expressed interstitial collagenase mRNA, protein and activity only just before and during the menstrual period. This clear-cut correlation and the inhibition of collagenase expression by progesterone and oestradiol in tissue culture point to a pivotal role of this proteinase in the mechanism of menstrual tissue breakdown and bleeding.

Focal cellular origin and regulation of interstitial collagenase (matrix metalloproteinase-1) are related to menstrual breakdown in the human endometrium.

Recent studies suggest that interstitial collagenase (MMP-1) is an essential enzyme in the early events leading to menstruation. This study analyses its cellular origin, regulation and relation to extracellular matrix breakdown in the human endometrium, both in cultured and non-cultured samples. The source of MMP-1 was identified by in situ hybridization and by immunohistochemistry on serial se...

I-30: Separate and Combination Effect of SexHormones on TLRs Expression in FallopianTubes

Background: Implantation is characterized by the interaction of two immunologically and genetically distinct tissues. The embryo differs from the cells of the mother, and would be rejected as a parasite by the immune system of the mother if it didn’t secrete immunosuppressive agents. Thus, immunological rejection of the fetus due to recognition of paternal antigens by the maternal immune system...

Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) Involvement in Human Endometrial Remodeling During the Menstrual Cycle

Background: Endometrial remodeling occurs during each menstrual cycle in women. Reports have shown that, in a variety of cell types, processes such as proliferation, signaling complex formation and extra cellular matrix remodeling require a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase, focal adhesion kinase (FAK). The present study has focused on the expression pattern of FAK in human endometrium during the men...

Background: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy however, mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis remain obscure. Endometrial carcinoma has been classified into two major categories: type I (related to estrogen or endometrioid adenocarcinoma) and type II (unrelated to estrogen). Estrogen is the main trigger for the abnormal proliferation in the endometrial epithel...

P-217: Expression Analysis of The Histone Variant H2A.Z in Endometrium Tissue during The Menstrual Cycle

Background: The human endometrium undergoes cyclical changes including proliferation, differentiation, tissue breakdown and shedding (menstruation) throughout a woman’s reproductive life. The postovulatory rise in ovarian progestrone induces profound remodeling in chromatin structure of cells, and consequently differentiation of estradiol-primed endometrium. This change is crucial for embryo im...
